Chapter 14 Assassination of the Duke and the Bet

When Bai Ye said the word "rejection", he felt that the air in the entire tavern had become cold for a moment. It seemed that the god of death was slowly passing by him inadvertently. The black sharp blades floating in the air might kill him at any time.

"Huh." He let out a light breath of heat, but Hull still did not do anything excessive.

At that moment, Fenriu and Skur did not smack their lips anymore, and looked at Bai Ye and Hull blankly, fearing that someone would turn into cold corpses in the next moment.

Hull has some concerns. Those who can master the arcane of space should not be underestimated, even if the guy wearing a ghost mask in front of him does not emit a trace of danger.

"Master, can you tell me the reason for your rejection?" Hull smiled slightly, and his face clearly had the expression on his face that you couldn't tell the reason to convince me, so I stab you to death.

Bai Ye curled his lips and said simply: "The reason is very simple. I can't help you do such a dangerous thing. I saved Skur because the witch is also a living life in my eyes, and so are other people. If I help you and you kill others, what is the difference between him and me killing him."

Hull's favorability did not decline, and it remained at 1 point, which means that his rejection was probably expected by the other party. She looked surprised and incomprehensible, and it seemed that Bai Ye had to say a reason to be satisfied, but in fact, she probably had plans from the beginning.

Including the "death coming" experience that was later given to him, it seems that it was also a preparation for the deepening negotiations between the two of them. This series of methods was not seen even by Fenriu, who was with her day and night. This can be seen from the inner concerns of the two sisters, that no one knew Hull's plan except herself.

This famous evil spirit queen does not seem to be the kind of fool Bai Ye imagined. If it weren't for the chips, he might have even been trapped by her.

"If it is because of this, the owner of the museum doesn't have to worry. The one who killed them was our Eye of the Evil Spirit, which has nothing to do with you. You can even regard our direct cooperation as a transaction, a pure commercial transaction." Hull didn't expect that there would be such an answer. He smiled immediately, and his delicate body under the black robe loomed under the crystal lamp, which was particularly attractive.

"You provide food to the Evil Eye, and the Evil Eye pays a certain amount of reward, either gold coins or anything we can pay for. Including...ours." Hull said the last sentence, deliberately leaning his body from the bar, pressing against Bai Ye's ears to make a very charming sound.

This is completely different from her previous coldness.

However, Hull was surprised for the first time. She could not see any common greed in the eyes of a man who sounded extremely young, "se                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              �

It is only as quiet as a lake, as distant and deep as the night sky.

In her perception, most men on the mainland are greedy and lustful, and value power and money. However, these things do not seem to attract Bai Ye. They cannot read any messages from his eyes, what he needs, desires, and know nothing.

"Is it a pure deal..." Bai Ye leaned back slightly, setting a distance from Hur. It was indeed extremely comfortable to stick close to a beautiful woman, but he needs extremely rational thinking now.

While increasing their favorability, he did not do anything strange as much as possible. Bai Ye exhaled. It was not that he was unwilling to help the witches, and even he was willing to help them than anyone else, but he responded deep in his heart that the way of survival of the Evil Eye was no different from chronic suicide.

"I'm sorry, I still intend to refuse. It's not that I don't want to trade with the Evil Eye, but that I think your approach is wrong." Bai Ye took a deep breath and expressed his thoughts in the tactful way possible. "In essence, I don't like your behavior. No matter what kind of assassination mission you will perform in the future, it must be very dangerous and may die at any time."

"We are all mentally prepared for this." Hull interrupted him disdainfully, "Adding to the Eye of the Evil Spirit means that my sisters have been awakened."

"But these behaviors are completely meaningless. To be honest, Lord Hull, do you think you are seeking a better future for the witches? In my eyes, I just think that your stupid behavior is causing them to die one by one." Bai Ye said slowly, "Don't you know the essence of the witch's status quo? After assassinating a leader, there are thousands of candidates who will take over. You are useless except to ruin the lives of your sisters."

"Hiss--" Hull tried his best to resist his anger. Bai Ye's words were denied by the Evil Spirit Eye, which was even more uncomfortable than some of the people who were enemies with them. However, she still resisted the urge to take action and waited quietly for him to continue speaking.

"I know this is difficult for you to understand, but I still think that the Eye of the Evil is wrong and is going to perish. For an ally who will definitely fail, should I cooperate with them?" Bai Ye said calmly. He could actually understand Hull's behavior.

Faced with all her exploitation, she is already quite extraordinary if she can choose to resist. It is really difficult for her to think about how to solve such a century of problems.

"Ha, the owner, do you mean to let us surrender? To endure their harm, humiliation, and even the deprivation of life?" Hull laughed rather than angry. She couldn't understand Bai Ye's thinking and could only implement her own thoughts to the end. "You have not experienced real despair. All six of us escaped from the witch prison. Maybe this place is just an ordinary place in your ears, but for all witches - it is a nightmare."

"A nightmare that can destroy everything you have. So after I came out from there, I decided to break this nightmare! For all of us." Hull said coldly, returning to his cold appearance at the beginning.

Bai Ye shrugged, and when he talked about this, he was completely broken. Fortunately, he glanced at the three witches. Their favorability had not decreased. At least fundamentally, they had not regarded themselves as enemies. But in this case, the possibility of coming to the tavern next time is very slim.

"Master, you not only feel that we are doomed to fail, but also feel that we cannot succeed in assassination from the bottom of your heart." Hull lowered his head, and a cold word came from under his hood, "Like those idiots, right?"

"Those idiots?" Bai Ye was puzzled, and it sounded like another group of witches with disagreement.

"Several fools who think they can live in peace with humans and try to gain status for the witches through non-war means!" Hull looked up suddenly, and a sharp light flashed in his beautiful eyes. "They also think that our method is undesirable, and even think that our force cannot break through their defense."

"Indeed, I want to rely on my personal strength to break through the many obstacles and hunt the leaders..." Bai Ye nodded. Even though the witches have dozens of times the power of ordinary people, they are still flesh and blood. If they can easily assassinate some crucial big figures, the witches will not be in this situation now.

"You really don't believe it, so how about we make a bet here?" Hull raised his head and showed a beautiful smile on his face. "Next month, we will assassinate the Lord of the Frost Territory - the Duke of the Levi's family. If we succeed, the owner, you must provide us with free food forever."

"Then what happened?" Bai Ye smiled. This was the only turning point. Judging from his understanding of Hull and the Eye of the Evil Spirit, such as such assassination will be very likely to fail. The duke of a family can tell from the records in the study that he was an important official of a country and had extremely strict guards.

It is almost the same as the protection around the king.

"It's impossible." Hull raised his head confidently again. Bai Ye's reaction represented that he promised the bet, and she would prove to the man that he was right.

The moment she mentioned Duke Levi, Zero, who had been silent, suddenly raised his head, and the wine glass in his hand fell on the table with a clang, scaring Skul almost started to flee.

A ray of light flashed through Zero's eyes, and soon it became dimmed again if not enough.

"Then let's have a meal first." Bai Ye readily agreed to the bet. He had indescribable confidence, or he had seen the full picture of the Evil Eye from Hull, Fenriu and Skur's temperament. Assassination is a technical job, not that it can be completed with enough brute force.

"Okay, okay, eat." Fenriu chewed the sweet white bread in his mouth and ran to the bar here excitedly. She had long been drooling at the various foods that were filled with fragrance in Zero's hands.

Hull looked at her and Skul helplessly, and also attended the banquet to have a meal with them.

Bai Ye smiled and watched them eat, and suddenly found that the favorability that had not fluctuated had actually jumped a little at this time. The three of them rose a little at the same time, which made Bai Ye laugh and cry.

The favorability that I can't improve after working hard for a long time can actually increase through food. What else is more absurd than this?

The witch's appetite was amazing. After eating all the food like a wind and cloud, the three witches bowed to Bai Ye very ladylikely, and then said that they had no money.

Yes, they can't pay for the meal.

Seeing Hull's proud look on his face, Bai Ye's head was too big, and he actually felt that the poor witches could have the financial resources to pay for the meal, which was a ridiculous thing in itself. Hull looked like he wanted to eat a king meal from the beginning, thinking of the so-called cooperation before - can they really pay for the food?

Or are they beautiful?

An evil thought arose in Bai Ye's heart, but it was quickly stopped. The three of them left with satisfaction, and Zero finally spoke at this time.

"Sir..."

"Is there anything wrong?" Bai Ye was busy cleaning up the mess, not caring about Zero's tone.
